Inhibitory control of memory retrieval and motor processing associated with the right lateral prefrontal cortex: Evidence from deficits in individuals with ADHD

▶ Individuals with ADHD show reduced brain activation in the rLPFC, as compared to controls during the inhibition over memory retrieval. ▶ Reductions of rLPFC were associated with increased brain activation in posterior regions supporting memory in individuals with ADHD, but not control individuals. ▶ Reductions in the ability to inhibit memory retrieval were also associated with longer SSRT in individuals with ADHD, indicating an association between inhibitory control in the domains of memory and motor.
